Re: Looking to join a collab? Scratch Galaxy hiring thread

Um, well, I guess I don't know what team I would like to be on. I can program, draw, and many others. I don't really care.

Name: AIOlover
Team: One (or more) of them
Why: I think it would be fun? Is that a good reason?
Other: Well, I think that many things are more interesting when flamingos and walruses (walri?) are added. My imaginary friend's middle name is Floyd. Um, I like pizza.

P.S. Where is that hashing tutorial/project/thingomobob? I would appreciate seeing that.

Re: Looking to join a collab? Scratch Galaxy hiring thread

XD I don't think adding walruses to Scratch Galaxy is going to happen. We'll discuss your application and get back to you soon! BTW, the hashing project is at http://scratch.mit.edu/users/roijac.

Re: Looking to join a collab? Scratch Galaxy hiring thread

Name: bobbybee (duh)
Team: Programming
Why: I've spent the past 10 months developing a commercial-quality server, and I am currently running the Scratch MMO DragonThunder using the server I wrote. I believe I have enough networking, programming, and computing experience to help make this project more then every other failed MMO collab.
Other: Erm...I had a similar idea before, and if I'm rejected I'll say I'm inspired by this thread?

Re: Looking to join a collab? Scratch Galaxy hiring thread

Name: happycat2000
Team:Flow Management or Art
Why: I like making projects look smooth and good. A project can have great code, but if the graphics are bad and messy, half its potential is gone! Good flow is also very important
Other: I'm also pretty good at programming.

Probably. It's going to be very similar to Webkinz, Club Penguin, VMK, etc.

Re: Looking to join a collab? Scratch Galaxy hiring thread

I don't believe we want a straight top down view. It's a good background, but not quite from the view we wanted. @technoboy 10, please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm not totally sure yet. Making the backgrounds was a kind of test for the candidates.

I really liked AIOlover's background, but as someone else replied, the character didn't seem to fit In the scene. Is it possible to make a 3D version of the character? Also, once we get into it, I'd vote for a way to change your characters look (hair, clothes, eyes...) in your "pod".

That would certainly be interesting, although it would take some significant work to script properly.

Hmm. Yeah, I'm pretty sure that the character could be created in 3D. I think one of the reasons the character didn't fit was the lack of a reflection. I can try to work on that. Thanks for all of the input! I'll attempt creating the character in 3D.

Re: Looking to join a collab? Scratch Galaxy hiring thread

Can I make another background? I didn't really put a lot of effort into making my other one.
